As you section your hair, add a moisturizing hair product like cocoa butter cream to keep your hair hydrated in the twists.

    It's a stylish protective style on its own and can also be used to give your hair cute curls once you take the knots out. First, comb your hair so that it's free of tangles. Then, take a section of your hair (try a small section if you want many small knots or a larger section if you want a few big ones) and twist it. As you twist, wrap it in a circle and hold it against your scalp. Tuck the ends of your hair in the knot and secure it in place with a hairpin. Repeat the process until all of your hair is in knots. [8]
    • To keep your hair hydrated, add some hair moisturizer or hair oil to each section before you twist it in the knot. You might try products containing jojoba oil, olive oil, or coconut oil. [9]
    • Take out your knots to achieve beautiful, tight curls. Simply twist your knots in the opposite direction that they were rolled in and unravel the curl with your fingers. [10]
    • Leave in your Bantu knots for up to 2 weeks.

    All you need are some hair extensions. These will protect your hair under the extensions and allow it some space to grow and stay safe from the elements. Pick up your hair extensions at a local beauty supply store or online. Then, tie your natural hair into a low bun. Next, secure your extensions around the bun with the rubber band at the top of the extensions. [13] Pin the extensions on top of the bun so that your hair isn't visible under the extensions. [14]
    • To add some volume to your ponytail, use 2 sets of extensions.

    To style your hair in box braids, divide your hair into squared-off sections. Then, braid in hair extensions along with your natural hair in each section. Go for knotless box braids if you have a sensitive scalp, as these are not braided as close to your scalp and can help ease any tension. Make an appointment to achieve the style at a salon if you're new to braiding and hairstyling. If you're more experienced, you can totally achieve the look at home. [19]
    • To do box braids at home, you'll need 6-8 packs of hair extensions to achieve the glorious long braids of your dreams. Buy these at a local beauty supply store.
    • Avoid keeping your braids in longer than 2 months. Give your hair a break with a different style after that time. [20]

    Try them out if you've always loved the look of dreadlocks but aren't sure you want to stick with the style. To achieve the look, attach hair extensions to your natural hair while it's in braids or cornrows. Since getting faux locs is a pretty involved process, consult a stylist and make an appointment if you're new to styling and braiding on your own. [21] If you're more experienced, do faux locs at home.
    • Like box braids, faux locs help protect your hair while it grows underneath your extensions.
    • Keep your locs for up to 6-8 weeks.

Once you've pinned down your hair, try out any hair look you've ever dreamed of with the variety of wigs available at beauty supply stores and online. [22]
    • The most common methods to pin down your hair under a wig include braids and cornrows.

    Braids should never hurt. This is actually a myth, your braids should be painless. If your hair is hurting you, go back to whoever put the braids in and let them know you're in pain. They should be able to fix them so they don't hurt anymore.

    Minimize the amount of friction your hair is exposed to and always use a heat protectant if you're going to use any thermal products or tools.
